Artist

My portraits rarely have a background as I like to focus on the person, the character. A background seems incidental, to distract from the subject. I find it interesting achieving physical likeness at one with the sitter's character. As an illustrator I drew and painted predominately people. The face an abiding fascination and an endless subject.My cityscapes are the "face" of where I live and visit and are on no less an interest to me. Though a contrast in painting styles, the approach suits the subject and my love of variety.
